Episode 1

It is an intriguing drama. Whoa, how and where do Kdrama scriptwriters/novelists get their ideas?!!! Weird but wonderful stuff.

Seo Ki Joo is the seventh generation of his family to become a ghost photographer.

It started with his ancestor whose daughter was dying.  In order to cheat death, he went to the underworld to steal the camera🤣🤣🤣

The pissed off grim reaper found the father with his daughter who was in her deathbed.  The grim reaper was suitably moved so he gave a condition to the father.  He said he would allow the daughter to live until she reaches 35 years of age and this will be the fate of their generations to come.

Seo Ki Joo has only just over 100 days left before he reaches 35.  He is resigned to his fate and would crossed out each day on his calendar.  Still he still liaise with the living and the dead though photographs.  He has two ghostly assistants.

Then he met a sort of kindred spirit so to speak.  She is not dead but seemed to have a special power because she could enter the secret realm.  She is a lawyer who was down in luck and was just kicked out of her apartment for non-payment of rent.

They worked on a case together about a comatose husband whose wife was about to put a pillow over his head.  She was so stressed from looking after him as well as trying to deal with their mounting debts.  She did not go through her plan but she felt so guilty and hopeless when her husband died so she confessed that she killed him.

Now, Seo Ki Joo had to reconcile the dead husband who was trying to get back to his wife who he felt sorry for.  Seo Ki Joo arranged for a last photograph of the two just to say goodbye.

Episode 2

Seo Ki Joo was flabbergasted that Han Bom could enter into the secret studio.  He asked her if perhaps she was dead. He immediately realised that she wasn’t.  She is a living breathing annoying woman.
